Windows movie maker not playing sound.

I am currently trying to make a video which will have sound and pictures/writing together. I have been able to make multiple videos in the past using this software but for some bizarre reason the sound doesn't work when I try make a new vid, nor does it
work on the previous vids that I have made. I have also tried to re-download Windows Movie Maker but I can't seem to find it? You help would be great as I am really unhappy about this situation. Thanks.

what happen if you play music or watch video using other app? still no sound?
what if files type that you edit at Movie Maker? please make sure you installed latest codec and this file supported by Movie maker
Please make sure this is not setting audio issue, setting audio at audio tab and volume slider at bottom right side

Windows movie maker doesnt play n directx 11

Hi everyone!!
I have installed the latest version of windows movie maker which is the windows move maker 2012.... i cannot run it i have directx 11 graphics card... how ca i fix it?

Hi,
Did you receive any error message when launching Windows Movie Maker 2012?
Download and install updates and drivers from Windows Update. Also, Movie Maker can't start if it's installed on an edition of Windows 7 or Windows 8 that doesn't include Windows
Media Player.

Imported avi crashes premiere pro cs4...sound only on windows movie maker

Hello all,
So when I go to import an avi it just crashes premiere pro...but first it turns into a sound only file, then crashes. With windows movie maker it only plays the sound?
Anyone else have these problems? I don't really want to use other video editors...
Oh and I'm running Vista.
Suggestions please.

I'm sorry I don't have a quick answer.
From what I can tell
- Vista X64 uses MovieMaker 64bit
- MovieMaker 64bit requires 64bit codecs (I think there is an experimental 64 bit ffdshow on sourceforge that might work)
- However installing 64bit codecs may stop your 32bit video apps from rendering properly.
I didn't provide links to the experimental ffdshow build cause I didn't try it myself.
If I were you, I'd give up on getting Movie Maker working for now, and just focus on Premiere pro. ? Since it is a paid application they should provide good support. You can't be alone with this issue. If they require codec information just tell them it's a H.264 video with PCM Audio in a AVI wrapper. Guess a quick snapshot video could be provided if they needed one.

(pss... I use Vista x64 as well, and do not get video in moviemaker either)

Windows Movie Maker won't play on DVD player

I have the OS7 now
The instruction say that a burned MASTER disc will play on DVD players and most computers???
I have used Mp4 and WMV formats with Windows Movie Maker, but none will play on DVD players but play well on computers???
I had formally use the Windows DVD Maker and the final file was UBF which seemed to work on all players and computers. My DVD Maker will not allow completion of Movie, it notes, " I need the proper codes to make it work"??
I have looked on the Microsoft site for these support codes but cannot find them??? Windows Movie worked well on my Vista OS. What has MS done to screw up this software???

You need to read the owner's manual for your DVD player to find out exactly what video formats it will play. Then you must ensure you record your video to DVD in a format that is recognized by your DVD player. The Windows 7 Windows Movie Maker
may have a different default video format output that what you were using in Vista. You have the option to specify the format of the video you record to DVD.

Windows Movie Maker - no sound on QT video clips

I'm trying to combine QuickTime video clips (downloaded from Casio camera) into one movie, using Windows Movie Maker (Vista). All the clips have sound when I open them in their folder but after importing the clips in to MovieMaker, there is no sound. How do I import these clips so that their sound is also there? I have no problem with other video clips, only those saved as QT.
Thanks

Lenovo C560 with Windows 8.1 (16-gb RAM) will not successfully load Windows Movie Maker

I loaded Windows Movie Maker 12 with Windows Essentials. -This is exactly the same setup I am using on a HP desktop at work with Windows 8.1, but for some reason my C560 keeps giving me a "low memory" warning and will not load a AVI clip. -Worse, after trying... my whole computer gets glitchy and nothing seems to work properly until I shut it down, and restart it.
Quick recap on what I have tried. Upgraded from 6-gb to 16-gb of RAM. Increased the size of my Virtual Memory as much as it would let me. Nothing has made the slightest bit of difference.

If you have a flashlight available I would shine it into each of the USB ports to make sure all the contacts are aligned straight and to see there is no debris in the port that could be shorting out the data contacts.
Another thing to try is going into Windows Device Manager and uninstall the USB and then reboot the computer. When the computer restarts it will again install the USB ports. This procedure will make sure the operating system correctly has them installed.
If the USB ports are still not functioning I would recommend you contact Lenovo Support for warranty service. You can find the phone number for Lenovo Support in your country or area by using the link below....

HT2688 trying to go into windows movie maker to make a photo disc with songs but it will not let me use the songs i bought in i tunes.it says i need to install codec but it has not worked

i am trying to go into windows movie maker to make a photo disc with songs from my i tunes but it tells me i can not do it because codec is not installed.i have tried to get codec but does not seem to have worked.

Go into your system profiler and tell us your Machine Identifier that says:
iMac x,y (give us the x and y values)
That will tell us whether you are Mavericks compatible or not.
Also tell us how much RAM you have installed.

ITunes movies will not play; blank window.

I recently purchased several HD movies from the iTunes Store (~$15.00 or more each), and now I've discovered they will not play on my MacPro (I do not own a TV.)
When I click the movies a separate window opens (as usual), but it remains black and nothing plays, If I move the movie window to another screen (I have three 30" Apple Cinema displays connected to a 2010 MacPro) the movies still will not play on any of the screens. If I change the iTunes settings to open the movie in the iTunes window, the movies still does not play. This problem seems to be recent, I have purchased MANY HD moves/TV shows from the ITunes store and have not had this problem until very recently (a month or so.)
If I try to open the movie with QuickTime instead of iTunes I get this message: "This movie cannot be played because it is on a display that is not authorized to play protected movies. Try moving this window to a different display or disconnecting any displays that are not HDCP authorized."
The only thing I can find buried in the iTunes Terms and Conditions is "(viii) An HDCP connection is required to view content transmitted over HDMI." But I am not transmitting over HDMI, the displays are connected directly to the MacPro and I don't have any HDMI cables connected to the machine. There is NOTHING at the time of purchase that indicates the HD movie will not play on my Apple displays.
Is it just the HD version of the movie? Would the SD version play OK?
How can the displays I'm using not be "authorized" it's an Apple display, using Apple cables/adapters connected to an Apple MacPro.
Any insight, information, or constructive help would be greatly appreciated (I do have a Apple support call scheduled for tomorrow...)
Thanks.

M30x MultiDrive will not burn DVDs from Windows Movie Maker

Hi,
My M30x MultiDrive will not burn DVDs from Windows Movie Maker and other applications.
I have also had problems burning CDs (unbranded) from Windows XP, built in utility.
Does the multidrive have problems, with cheaper brand disks?
Just to note,
The laptop has been back to the support guys three times so far with various issues.
(1) The hard drive failed.
(2) The multidrive failed.
(3) The motherboard got replaced, because of power failures, it wouldnt charge the battery or recognise that the power adapter was plugged in.
Note: The harddisk, not the exhaust fan makes the most noise in mine!
Thanks

Hi
As far as I know the preinstalled burning software (i.e. record now, drag ndrop) disabled the Windows XP burning option. In this case if you want to use the Movie Maker or Windows media player burning option, you should to enable this possibility.
Please go to driver properties (right click). Please select the Recording tab. The option Enable CD recording on this drive should be marked.
I use the Nero burning software and in my opinion its a one of the best burning programs. Furthermore you should try different CD/DVD manufacturers because some CDs and DVDs are not compatible with some drives. Check the TDK CDs and DVDs. I never had any problems with these medias.
Best regards

File transfer of Voice Notes to Windows Movie Maker

Maybe this really isn't a Blackberry question, but....
Voice Note file has been transferred to my computer (.amr extension). But I can't get it to import into Windows Movie Maker because of an incorrect Codec. Is there anything I can do with the file via my Blackberry Desktop Manager to change the extension?

Can anyone answer this question for me? I am very frustrated with this issue. I had a lot of family members give me itunes gift cards for Christmas so that I could purchase appropriate songs for slideshows that I make for grandchildren and other family members. I cannot get any of the songs into my slideshows as it says that they are mp4's. Someone told me that they have to be mp3's and then someone told me that I could convert them to mp3s within itunes and export them to my slideshows. I am not selling the slideshows, only doing this as a hobby and am now upset that I spent so much time and money on songs I cannot use. Is this true, I can never use them in my slideshows? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Depends what they are. If you purchased .m4p files, be aware that they contain Apple-proprietary DRM "protection" that prevents their use in non-Apple programs. If you purchased .m4a files, you can use iTunes to convert them to MP3.
For future reference, since you plan to use your music for multiple purposes, the most compatible format, by far, is MP3. Make sure that all music you purchase or rip is in MP3 format.

I recently downloaded 2 movies in iTunes on my windows PC and movies will not play, they will open up to the main menu, mouse overs work as well as extra features. However the main movies will not let you play.

I recently downloaded 2 movies in iTunes on my windows PC and movies will not play, they will open up to the main menu, mouse overs work as well as extra features. However the main movies will not let you play. On mouse over in itunes the 'play' buttion is not enabled, yet is however enabled on previously downloaded movies.

For me I have follow several of the help articles. When I play the movie in iTunes the screen is black with no audio, the timer status says it is playing (although it does not work all the time). I am able to play and have audio on the extras. I tried to use just QuickTime to play the movie and that as well does not work. I have started iTunes in safe mode and when the movie would begin to play, iTunes crashes and I have to restart. I have tried fresh clean installs of iTunes as well as QuickTime with no luck.
It looks to be a QuickTime problem however I cant verify that. Any help would be great.

IPod Nano Video with Windows Movie Maker

I found this page by Apple that explains how to use video from the 5G iPod Nano, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3837
But, I cannot find Windows Movie Maker V2.5, and V2.1 with Windows XP will not import the video from the iPod Nano. Anybody have any ideas on how to solve this? (Besides buying a Mac...)
Also, Windows Media Player 11 will not play the video created with the 5G iPod Nano either.

You can use the AVS Video Editing software to import MPEG-4 Movie files in the same way you'd import .avi files into Windows Movie Maker. Also, the AVS Video Editor will allow you to import iTunes .mp4 audio files and incorporate them into your soundtrack. If you still want to use Windows Movie Maker for your video editing you can also use video conversion software from the same company, i.e. AVS Video Converter 6, to convert from MPEG-4 into .avi or .wmv format. I've found converting to .wmv to be considerably slower than converting to .avi though. Here's a link to the AVS video software offerings below. BTW, the AVS Video Editor can be used for free, while there's a charge for the Converter.

Part 1: How to import .mod video to Windows Movie Maker
Step 1: Load files
First copy the MOD file from your video camera to your hard drive, then download, install and run MOD Converter, click the "Add Files" button to browse your computer hard disc and load the MOD/TOD video files you want to convert to the program.
Step 2: Output Setting
In the bottom of the main interface, select an output format supported by Windows Movie Maker for each video file and specify a directory on your computer to save the output files.
Step 3: Start convert
Click "Start" button on right bottom of the main interface, you are allowed to start conversion.
Step 4: Import converted video to Windows Movie Maker
Click on "File". Then click on "Import". A window will appear. In the window, navigate to the video clip you converted just now. Then double click on the file. You'll see the icon for the file in your Windows Movie Maker "Collections".
Part 2: How to edit the video with Windows Movie Maker
Step 1: Add transitions and special effects
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Edit Movie, click View video transitions.
Preview transitions by double-clicking them and watching the Preview Monitor. Once you've found a transition you like, drag it from the Video Transitions pane, under Edit Movie pane to the box between two of your clips. This inserts the transition between the two clips.
Step 2: Add titles and credits
If you want to add a title before, after, or on top of a clip, click the clip on the storyboard or timeline.
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Edit Movie, click Make titles or credits.
Step 3: Add Music
In the Movie Tasks pane in Movie Maker, under Capture Video, click Import audio or music.
In the Import File dialog box, click the name of the song you want to use in the background. Then click Import. This adds your song to your collection but does not add it to your video. Drag the song from the collection to the video clip where you want the music to start playing.
Step 4: Add narration
If you have a desktop computer, connect a microphone. Microphones are available from most electronics stores. If you have a portable computer, you can use the built-in microphone. However, you will get a better-quality recording if you connect an external microphone. In Movie Maker, click the Tools menu, and then click Narrate Timeline. On the timeline, click the clip you want to narrate. You can narrate clips one at a time, or you can narrate the entire movie all at once. If you narrate individual clips, you can rearrange them later and keep your narration synchronized. If the narration is too loud or too soft in comparison to the movie, right-click the narration on your timeline, and then click Volume.
Step 5: To save your movie to your computer
In the Movie Tasks pane, under Finish Movie, click Save to my computer.
The Save Movie Wizard appears. On the Save Movie File page, type a name for your movie. You can also choose a folder to save it in by clicking the Browse button, but My Videos (the default) is usually the best place to save your movie. Then click Next. On the Movie Setting page, click Next to accept the default setting of Best quality for playback on my computer.
Movie Maker saves your movie, which might take several minutes. On the Completing the Save Movie Wizard page, click Finish. If Play movie when I click Finish was selected (it is selected by default), the movie will automatically play in Windows Media Player. Now you can watch your videos anytime by opening your My Videos folder and double-clicking your movie.
Part 3: How to upload my video to YouTube
A video file should meet the following requirements so that it can be uploaded to YouTube site.
1. In an acceptable format: WMV, MPEG4, MOV, AVI and MPEG.
